Sarah Releases Debut Novella

Squad grad Sarah Gonnet’s debut novella, MaTilda, is out now with Holland House Books.

Matilda was always happy to live vicariously through her collection of classic films – but that was before Thomas brought his manic energy into her life. Can she find her way back to herself? Tilda is a young woman who did a terrible thing. How much self-punishment can one woman handle? Does she deserve to move on? Mother is the connection between the two women. They are both her daughter. Her only daughter. A strange, poetic story of what it is to be a young woman fractured by life.

Sarah is a multi-media writer and artist from the North-East of England. She makes work in many forms. She speaks publically about disability, and has written about mental health in film for the Guardian and Little White Lies. She is currently working on Look Up at the Stars, a middle grade non-fiction book about disability for Scholastic.
